Oxygen levels during spine surgery to reduce lung collapse
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests a new way to set oxygen levels during spine surgery while lying face down. The goal is to see if it can prevent small air sacs in the lungs from collapsing after surgery, which may help you breathe easier.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 80 years old
- Your health status is classified as ASA I, II, or III (generally healthy to moderate illness)
- Your body mass index (BMI) is between 18 and 35
- You have not had a lung infection or cold in the past month
- You do not have lung diseases like COPD or severe emphysema, and no severe sleep apnea needing a breathing machine at night

This study uses lung ultrasound to see how different positions during surgery affect lung collapse after general anesthesia. It may help find ways to reduce breathing problems after an operation.
This study compares two different levels of breathing support during spine surgery performed while lying face-down. Researchers want to see which level works better for your lungs during the procedure.
This trial studies whether using a brain oxygen monitor to guide lower oxygen levels during one-lung ventilation is safe and effective for people having lung surgery. It may help reduce the risk of lung injury while keeping the brain healthy.
This study is testing whether adjusting the amount of oxygen given during and after surgery can help reduce lung complications in people having lung surgery with a special breathing tube. The goal is to find a safer oxygen level that might keep your lungs healthier.
This trial tests whether using a lower amount of oxygen during lung surgery helps reduce the risk of lung collapse after the operation. It may lead to better breathing and faster recovery after your surgery.
